Purchase Order SPE7M225P3698

The U.S. Department of Defense's Land and Maritime division awarded a $43,935 firm fixed-price purchase order to Millennium Aerospace and Defense (doing business as Blodgett Professional Engineering) for the manufacture of a fairlead assembly. The award, issued on July 30, 2025, carries an ultimate completion date of July 15, 2026, and represents a non-set-aside procurement. Millennium Aerospace and Defense, a small business manufacturer based in Cameron Park, California, specializes in producing critical aerospace and aviation components for military applications, with particular expertise in spare parts and assemblies supporting Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) sustainment programs across DLA Aviation, DLA Land and Maritime, and related divisions.

This purchase order aligns with the company's established track record of delivering specialized aerospace hardware to defense agencies. The fairlead assembly—a component typically used in aircraft rigging and control systems—represents the type of precise, mission-critical hardware that Millennium Aerospace and Defense routinely supplies to support military aircraft maintenance and logistics operations. The company's existing portfolio includes two significant indefinite delivery contracts with DLA Aviation valued at $250,000 each, through which it supplies tapered plug assemblies, aircraft window panels, structural supports, and other specialized components, demonstrating the contractor's capability to meet complex defense manufacturing requirements over extended performance periods.
